Lights

[mark]

Cut out holes on the lid that will match the vent holes on the top off the light fixture. Screw fixture directly to the lid, or what I did with my MH mini-pendant was place a stand off between the pendants and the top using phenolic strips. Cut holes on either end of your hood to again to line up with the vents on the fixture.

In the picture the red is the phenolic stock. Used it to get a thermal break and to allow some air circulation.


As for height, when building my canopy I wanted to keep it low. I contact a couple of companies for height and from Hamilton for their Reefstar pendants they recommended 8" above water, for PFO and their main-pendants they said 5 ".
